My wife asked me a question that got me thinking.
(Never a good thing.)
This is about a SECURE data transfer that might
take 15 to 30 minutes on a dial-up connection.
(Actually, there would be hundreds of them from
different people...)
If a third party program, running inside a Win-XP
laptop gathers data and sticks it into one file,
how hard is it to "protect" that data AND provide
for recovery for disconnected connections, etc...
The "original" software engineers would have to do
all this of course... AND inside their own program...
Saying that another way, if they were disconnected
after half was sent, they would "just" want re-connect
and send the other half...
I'm kinda of thinking that should be STANDARD
in a modern program (and server set up), correct?
Can someone give us a reality check on what they can
reasonably expect to be the current "state of the art"?
